Did it verify
Not verified. The Iowa Environmental Mesonet's Cow found no qualifying storm report inside this severe thunderstorm warning while it was in force. That is not proof nothing happened: reports are thin where few people live.
Cow counts a report within 15 km of the polygon while the warning was in force: a tornado for a tornado warning; hail of 1 inch or more, a gust of 58 mph or more or wind damage for a severe thunderstorm warning; a flash flood report for a flash flood warning.
The nearest sounding before it
Nashville Metro, TN (KBNA), launched 00:00Z, 7.1 hours before the alert went out and 237 km from the middle of its area. This is the routine balloon launch nearest before it, the air the forecaster had in hand, not a measurement taken for the alert.

JDGWhat forecasters said that day
The local office's own words before this severe thunderstorm warning went out, as it sent them, from the Iowa Environmental Mesonet's archive of National Weather Service text.
NWS Louisville, KY wrote its last area forecast discussion before this severe thunderstorm warning went out at Jul 27, 1:45 AM EDT, 1 hour 19 minutes earlier.
Area forecast discussion, Jul 27, 1:45 AM EDT, 1 hour 19 minutes before
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE LOUISVILLE KY 145 AM EDT Sun Jul 27 2014 ...Updated Aviation Discussion... .SHORT TERM (Now through Sunday Night)... Issued at 309 PM EDT Sat Jul 26 2014 ...Increasing confidence for severe threat tonight through Sunday... The synoptic pattern this afternoon features a strong ridge across the southern CONUS, placing the Ohio Valley within northwest flow aloft. A strong PV anomaly will dive through this northwest upper flow, amplifying a trough over the region by the end of the short term period. Conditions remain quiet across the region early this afternoon, as warm mid-level air has worked in, capping any convection. Partly cloudy conditions will continue through the remainder of the afternoon which should allow temperatures to climb into the lower 90s in most spots. An MCV/weak surface low visible on satellite imagery continues to push east across northern MO. Mainly elevated convection has developed over the past few hours near this feature, as a firm cap has limited surface-based development. However, most short-term hi-res model guidance including the 26/15Z HRRR, 20/12Z WRF-ARW and WRF-NMM depict surface-based convection developing late this afternoon and early this evening across MO and western IL, then racing east across southern IL, southern IN, and into northern Kentucky tonight. Given the agreement in the hi-res guidance along with support from the 26/12Z GFS, confidence in this convection developing has increased from previous forecasts. As this convection congeals, it appears likely to develop a strong cold pool given DCAPE values of 1200+ J/kg and 0-3 km shear vectors of 30-40 knots. This will allow for a swath of potentially damaging winds to push through IL/IN and into KY. The timing of this convection puts it into our southern IN counties around 2-4Z, and into the Louisville metro area between 3-5Z. Given the timing, the surface will be stabilizing somewhat as we lose heating. Therefore, think the best damaging wind potential (some potentially significant wind gusts) will be just northwest of the LMK CWA, but still expect a swath of potentially damaging winds to push into southern IN and northern KY tonight, with the system likely weakening as it pushes further into KY. This damaging wind threat will go all the way into the Lexington metro, but will likely be more localized in nature at that point. A westerly low-level jet of 35-40 knots will ramp up tonight in response to the approaching PV anomaly. Therefore, any lingering outflow boundaries will likely remain active (especially if they can become oriented more north-south so convergence will be maximized) overnight. Given the expected path of the MCS, the southwestern flank of the outflow will be the most likely spot for renewed activity overnight, which will likely be across southern IN and north-central KY. While an isolated severe risk will persist with this later convection, think the main threat will then transition to heavy rain. Given PWATs near 2 inches and the potential of training storms, some localized flash flooding does appear possible, despite the ground being so dry in recent weeks. Confidence begins to decrease on Sunday as it remains unclear just how much cloud cover and lingering precipitation will be around. However, guidance continues to suggest the atmosphere will recover ahead of the approaching upper trough and strong surface front, setting the stage for additional severe thunderstorm development. 0-6 km shear vectors of 40-50 knots oriented mostly orthogonal to the surface front, along with a favorable orientation to the right-exit region of an 80+ knot upper-level jet streak will support initial supercell development. The best severe threat will be on the Kentucky side of the river, where the front will be crossing during peak heating. Given the drier mid-levels and steep lapse rates, large hail will be possible in addition to damaging winds with these storms. An isolated tornado is not out of the question given the potential for semi-discrete storms, but it will likely take interaction with any lingering outflow boundaries to make up for a lack of ambient environmental low-level SRH to produce an isolated tornado. Otherwise, conditions will quickly clear out Sunday evening as the front sweeps across the Ohio Valley. Drier and cooler air will filter in, as lows Sunday night drop into the mid 60s. .LONG TERM (Monday through Saturday)... Issued at 308 PM EDT Sat Jul 26 2014 A highly amplified upper level pattern will be in place for much of the extended forecast period. A very well advertised upper level trough axis will remain parked across the eastern third of the US through the period. This upper trough is unseasonably deep and will bring much below normal temperatures to our region next week. The below normal temperatures may tie or break record minimum temperatures at some of our observation locations early next week. A compact vorticity lobe may rotate around the base of the upper trough on Monday which could bring some scattered rain showers and clouds to mainly the eastern half of the forecast area. After this feature rotates out, the upper level trough remain in place across eastern North America as the pattern generally remains blocked aloft. This will result in a cool northwesterly flow which looks to keep the bulk of the week dry but with below normal temperatures. Highs Monday and Tuesday will only top out in the middle to upper 70s with overnight lows in the lower to middle 50s. The upper trough looks to open up slightly by Wednesday, but conditions will remain rather dry with slightly warmer temperatures. Highs by Wednesday look to warm into the upper 70s and lower 80s with overnight lows in the upper 50s to around 60. The forecast becomes increasingly more complex by later in the week as the upper level troughing becomes a bit more established once again over the eastern US. Both long term deterministic runs of the Euro and GFS both eventually develop a cut off low that holds sway over the Ohio Valley by late in the forecast period. The re-amplification of the pattern will likely result in increasingly wetter conditions as we move from Friday and into next weekend. In general, we have preserved much of the previous forecast which started capturing the evolving trends. This forecast simply increases cloud cover and slightly increases PoPs from Friday and into Saturday. With the expected increase in cloud cover, we also expect that afternoon maximum temperatures will likely be a bit cooler as well. Highs Thursday will likely be the warmest of the week with readings in the lower-middle 80s. Temperatures are likely to drop back into the upper 70s by Friday and Saturday. Overnight low temperatures look to remain cool with readings generally in the lower 60s. && .AVIATION (06Z TAF Update)... Issued at 139 AM EDT Sun Jul 27 2014 Decaying MCS continues to push off toward the east, leaving a brief reprieve for area terminals. Behind it, some showers have popped up around the region, but should pose no significant impact aviation interests as these shouldn't contain lightning nor drop ceilings below VFR. However, hi-res models are indicating redevelopment of convection after 07Z over far southern IN and northern KY, which could put SDF in the cross hairs once again. This activity is anticipated to remain elevated and not pose a severe threat; should be unlike earlier this evening. This development, if it pans out, is due to instability advecting back in behind the MCS and jets moving in from the north and west. Given the lack in confidence in this occurring though, have negated mentioning in this TAF issuance and will simply amend as necessary. Uncertainty in exact timing and placement of convection on Sunday also negates mention in this TAF issuance. Storms firing up during the day will be highly dependent on what happens over the next several hours. However, storms can be expected in or around all three terminals with a potential for severe weather, particularly near LEX and BWG. The fropa is expected to have cleared all three terminals sometime or shortly after 00Z Monday and will take with it storm activity. Winds will be a concern during the day as 15 to 20 knot southwesterly gradient winds are expected with higher gusts. Winds could even higher in or around any storms. && .LMK WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES... KY...NONE. IN...NONE. && Short Term........KJD Long Term.........MJ Aviation..........lg
